PDF Generation error - Out of bounds
Hi All,
We are experiencing some erratic behaviour. When attempting to generate a PDF for a section, sometimes it does work and others (same information on both) we get the following exception, thrown by step 4 (Java) of the HTMLtoPDF activity :
Caused by:
java.lang.StringIndexOutOfBoundsException

I have even left the section, which is referred by the smart shape, with a hardcoded value but still getting same issue.
Anyone who has experienced this? We are using 7.2.2 and Mashup for accessing the application.
Thanks a lot!
Manuel.

Hi Santanu,
I found the solution here : https://mesh.pega.com/message/192614#192614
Seems to be a tidy issue.
Thanks a lot for replying!

Are you able to get hold of the input HTML just prior to it being converted by HTMLTOPDF ?
Is it always the same input that causes the same issue ?

Yes, same markup would work the first attempt but crash on the following (got the markups/HTMLStream from Logs and compared them) ... After disabling tidy (pyDisableHTMLProcess in HTMLToPDF) it started worked consistently ...

What Tidy basically does is applies reformatting the html tags. There is a possible way to disable Tidy parsing and is optional . However it was applied to be on the safer side.
